BDRV 1889

I had a heads-up from the MB-SK Rails Yahoo! group that there was an interesting locomotive in the CP Winnipeg yard. It was painted black and lettered BLACK RIVER. As it happened, I was going to be in the vicinity, so I tracked it down.

The unit was located just east of the Arlington Street bridge, on the south side of the yard, and was accessible from Higgins Avenue (here). The unit was coupled to a string of freight cars.

About Me

I am a train geek and a photographer. But more importantly I'm a father and husband.

At times in my life I have been a computer geek, a gamer geek, a ship geek, a plane geek, a medievalist geek... and probably others. I am passionate about topics like these and I enjoy writing and talking about them.
